Blog: Iran's Oil Woes; An Arab Electric Car?, Interesting scenario

"Nuclear or solar, if Iranians won't consider electricty for cars, perhaps neighboring Arab states will."

"A report out of tiny Abu Dhabi suggests some of the oil rich may be looking considering alternatives to oil for cars."

"We are cooperating with the giant French group Dassault to produce an electric car which can operate on clean power with a speed of 160 km/h," he said."

Great site for info also.
I see that senator Barb Boxer (D) wants to know who killed the electric car...
it is about time someone ask that question to the auto execs that were in charge.

Ooops...

This is certainly an interesting development. So Iran may not be exporting oil within a decade? That's a pretty interesting bit on information. They're one of the world's largest producers. All those cars are killing their exports.
